Developing Project-Based and Community-Based Learning Opportunities

This is a group meeting designed for participant faculty (or potential participants) who will use the Calibrated Peer Review software system developed at UCLA. This system automates  the process of peer- and self-assessment of student written work. John Kane will provide an overview of the system and provide information on how to: add student users, create assignments, and evaluate the results.

This workshop will provide an informal discussion of the possibilities for "flipping the classroom." Under this approach, low-level tasks and assignments are completed by students outside of class and class time is devoted to individual and/or group work on higher cognitive level tasks. This approach might use such tools as just-in-time teaching and team-based learning.

Frustrated when students give only cursory readings to the comments you write on papers or when they ask for an explicit blueprint for revision? Surprised at how they approach you for help?  Any advice you'd like to give them about how best to work with faculty on their written work?

This session, presented by Assessment Fellow Jennie Han, is a brief talk and discussion about how to create effective measures to assess analytic and research papers in the Social Sciences and Humanities.
